I never got it as a kid, partly because it was a difficult pun for that age. I didn’t know the word tune nor would I later pronounce it like that. The first forms of that word, I ran into, were radio tuner and car tuning, nothing I’d associate with music
Looney “Toons” is the stupidest one.
It was always a pun on toons by spelling it “Tunes” and because music is extremely prominent for it.
Especially in the early ones; they were basically ads to sell music from the Warner music catalog.
